David Beckham hints at signing Champions League winner for Inter Miami with cheeky remark in Netflix doc | The Sun
DAVID BECKHAM has hinted that Inter Miami could attempt to sign former Paris Saint-Germain and Barcelona winger Neymar.
The England legend founded Inter Miami in 2018, four years after exercising his option to purchase a club.
Beckham's side – which is co-owned by Jorge and Jose Mas – made its MLS debut in 2020, but failed to hit the ground running.
Several high-profile players signed for the Herons, including Blaise Matuidi and Gonzalo Higuain, but they struggled to challenge for any silverware.
That was until Lionel Messi arrived.
The seven-time Ballon d'Or winner joined Inter Miami in a free transfer from PSG in June and has already scored 11 goals and provided five assists in 12 appearances.

He also helped the club to its first-ever trophy – the Leagues Cup.
Former Barcelona stars Sergio Busquets and Jordi Alba have since joined Messi at the DRV PNK Stadium.
But Beckham is keen to add even more big names to his squad.
And he has hinted that he will try to sign Neymar next.

While showing a video of the Brazilian winger in his new Netflix documentary, BECKHAM, the ex-Man Utd star said: "He'll be playing for us one day."
He added: "I want to win with the best players and the best team."
Neymar joined Saudi Pro League side Al-Hilal in a £77.6million transfer from PSG in August.
However, he has grown increasingly frustrated since making the switch.
The ex-Barcelona star was left stunned after discovering the state of the pitch he was expected to play on last week.
He returned to Brazil earlier this week to witness the birth of his second child.
Neymar announced the arrival of daughter Mavie early on Saturday morning.
